Selling my Smart ForTwo Passion (Michigan)

For those who may "NOT" want to wait, I am interested in selling my Smart Fortwo Passion. I have the following options:

Metallic Blue
Silver Metallic Tridion Cell
Fog Lights
Heated Seats
Instruments: Tach and Clock
Cloth Mats

Single CD.

All else, standard options with the Passion. I am looking to sell my car for $21,500 OBO. I Live in Michigan, within the Greater Detroit Area.

Note to Admin.... I did not see a thread for those interested in Selling their cars. If this is inappropriate, please move an appropriate thread and advise. Thanks.

We do have a market place forum....its way down there. I'll move it and keep the link for a few days. Sorry to hear you're selling it. Is it just not want you wanted, or did you foresee potential $$ to be had?

To be honest, I have 5 cars, most of which, dont get very good mileage. I was thinking this would be a great car for taxiing the kids to their activities, however, have realized that there really is no good way of taking 3 people...we've tried. Also, with it's short wheelbase, the bumps seem bigger, especially, here in Michigan, anyways, where the roads are not very good. This, incidently, I've noticed provides for a minor "neck-ache" if I drive very long.....I think, this is just me though....and haven't heard others mention it anywhere on the forum here. So...all, in all, I thought, rather than be disappointed....better to sell it now....and perhaps, make someone else happy.

I am assuming this is a 2008 model passion? Or is it a 2004-2006 model 450 G&K conversion?

Please list the model year and mileage when listing cars for sale!

Thanks for the words of encouragement.

The Car, truly, is a GREAT Car. I am incredibly fond of it and if, I keep it, wouldn't mind it a bit. Yes, it is a 2008. As of this am, just little over 100 miles on it. If I can learn how to post photo's, I will. I'm thinking my son, will be able to help me tonight, to do that. Looks just like all the other Blue Metallic with Silver Metallic Tridion Cells cars though. Black Cloth interior, with leather steering wheel, with the options listed above. If interested, feel free to PM me. Thanks again.

That is also the other side of the dealer fee issue; I'm not a fan of dealer fees but on something like the smart deals (captive audience) the same logic would apply - why not charge the highest dealer fees they can?

Because we should ALL be able to ge the same deal. If dealer fees were the same I would be happy, if we could select our dealer I would be happy, but when they pick the dealer AND the fees it is not right. MOVING MY CAR TO CALIFORNIA.
